The Evolution of Blasphemy |

by Catherine Capellaro and Andrew Rohn
ACT I: Rapture — In the not-too-distant future, King George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, and his inner circle, Sarah Palin among them, anxiously await Jesus’ arrival. The world descends into chaos and scarcity. A man emerges out of the wilderness, excoriating the leaders for destroying paradise. He must be Jesus…
ACT II: Purgatory—The world’s first disco musical. In life, Professor Owens was a brutal taskmaster, who drilled the joy out of music for countless students. When Owens dies in a plane crash, he is stuck in Purgatory, charged with organizing a choir of disco lovers. Heaven gives him one chance, an audition concert, and the devil happily awaits his failure.
ACT III: Paradise—In this parable, Adam and Eve’s peaceful lives are disrupted after they encounter a mutant fish that is an evolutionary bridge from water to land. Curious Eve is seduced by the creature’s description of the biological history of the world, which conflicts with Adam’s fundamentalist views. The fish introduces Eve to her real family and Eve has to squarely face two radically different worldview.
